TIRES
Potential Consequences:
Tire size: st 205 / 75 R 15 Returning ng home from a camping vacation. Traveling on interstate 10 east of San Antonio. Experienced a right rear blowout in a tandem axle camping trailer. Upon replacing damaged tire with included spare noticed considerable damage to wheel well from exploded tire. The tire’s tread had seperate exposing broken and separated belts. I was confused why brand new tires would explode as this one did. Also noticed that the 3 remaining tires looked different from the exact replacement spare tire. Spare tire looked normal but the three remaining tires looked like their center tread wanted to separate as well. We made it home. The tire is still available to inspect. Our lives were in danger because we had to pull over on the side of interstate and change tire. The tire was available for inspection by the insurance company but no comment was made.

EQUIPMENT
Potential Consequences:
The contact owns a 2022 Forest River XLR Toyhauler. Before purchasing the Toy Hauler, the contact noticed that the coupler had severe rust and was improperly welded. Upon investigation, the contact discovered NHTSA Campaign Number: 22V143000 (Equipment, Trailer Hitch) which she linked to the failure. The dealer agreed to make the needed repairs; however, upon delivery of the Toy Hauler, the coupler was spray painted to hide the damage and was not replaced. One day while using the microwave, the contact saw white smoke coming from the walls of the Toy Hauler and flames started coming from the walls. The contact used a fire extinguisher to put out the flames. The contact called the Fire Department who confirmed that the fire was caused by the electrical wiring inside the wall. A fire report was filed. Upon investigation, the contact linked the failure to NHTSA Campaign Number: 22V135000 (Electrical System, Equipment). In addition, upon the use of the awning, the left side of the awning snapped and struck contact on the head. The contact was knocked unconscious but regained consciousness moments later. Medical attention was not sought. The contact linked the failure to NHTSA Campaign Number: 22V556000 (Equipment). The dealer and the manufacturer were notified several times of the failure but offered no assistance. The RV was not repaired. The failure mileage was unknown.

First trip out landing jacks did not work to level unit and one of the back glasses in the toy hauler scattered going down the road which was replaced with warranty. We have been trying to get the slide issue looked into for a couple of months but no luck getting a forest river tech to come assess and fix with the additional warranty purchased along with this unit. Have contacted manufacturer and was not helpful, they only referred places to carry to and would reimburse "some" of the cost. We are paying for a camper unit that is not up to standard for the price we paid for it especially having to wait 8 months after ordering it in June 2021 and we finally was able to pick up end of February 2022.
